I have this business which I'm looking to offload. Yes, it would and could easily benefit from 'free' government funding and soft-loans, but I have never been one for freeness or selling out (it depends on your view).
Still, it's a viable concern which could benefit from having a visionary individual or a group of individuals carry it forward - as its a lot of work, but profitable if you put the work in.
So, back to my point. To sell or not to sell? That's the question.

...cheers brothers. That attitude is why the Koreans sell super-strength booze to the brothers in Black US ghettos and the Asians do so well doing exactly the same in the UK.
Black community? The only things that binds us together is the colour of our skin, police and other institutionally racist handcuffs and of course our mistrust of each other...
Unity?
Live long and prospers my skeptical friends!

...just an online Black 'opinion' driven magazine of a sorts. One of many I guess, but four years and still up and in there must count for something. But hey, whilst word -of-mouth, anonymity and zero advertisinghas allowed it to be influence free and objective there's only so much a micro group of individuals can do even with experienced editorial assistance.
But hey, examples of Black businesses and collaborative efforts are few and far between. We could blame 400 years of slavery and a host of other things, but the fact remains, there's loads to be gained from working together, cash or no cash...
But hey what do I know? Maybe we got to start trusting each other not to rip us off or sell each other down the river.
...don't take my word for it!

Come on now if you really had a business to sell you wouldn't come to a DISCUSSION based website to do it would you? If you really are serious, (whichI don't believe for one minute you are), then no wonder you have to sell!
Don't be surprised if someone takes it off you for a nickel whilst telling you it's gold!
